Wow I did some ferrofluid imaging and though I ended up with some breathtaking and surreal results but this is next level. I love the angularity and almost evil or dystopian look of the magneto-rheoscopic fluid. I’m jealous.
What’s amazing is the contrast between light and dark, and sharp and smooth. It’s really differences are balanced and gives a Lord of the rings “Mordor” kinda texture.
I like how you can really see how the ferrofluid peeled out of the layer, I haven’t seen anything like this before.
I can’t believe how spiky it is, did you try poking one with your finger?
Such amazing focus, you can see every ridge of every spike. Excellent work.
The sharpness of your image looks amazing and I like how half of the image is intentionally left out.
It’s cool that the spikes formed differently than usual!
I really enjoyed this image and the way the ferrofluid is almost “cut”. I think the monochrome filter adds focus to the main subject of this photo. Great job.
I love how it cut out pie slices out of the fluid when the magnet was applied. It’s so weird to see sharp corners, and triangles, in fluid.
I love the depth of field as well as the amount of Ferrofluid on the plate. It looks like a river not a concentrated area of ferrofluid
